Tnx Candledave, another clever cryptic clue.

Next, 18, 4D: Bungling writer thrown over in the end. ANS: Angularly.

No idea, parse please.

I really don't thin Angularly can be correct. Inept, bungling works. The writer is Pen, thrown over so is Nep. This is inside (in) It, the end, the last word,the very thing etc.

Hi Malone,

Tnx, you were correct. I gave the answer to the clue beside it. Apologies.

Tnx also for explaining inept, which was the correct answer.

Taking a break now. Tnx all for your help today.

Thanks, Colmm. I'm quite happy to help. It's always good to see clues that aren't in my usual papers, I expect others here will feel the same.

Angularly and the clue you gave just didn't work,so I had a re-think.

Hi all again,
